About the Baltimore and Ohio Deal.
CONNECTIONS THAT ARE EXPECTED TO PROVE OF
GREAT VALUE.
The Baltimore Sun says: The Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad deal was on Saturday brought into some
prominence again by the visit to this city of Mr..
Geo. Il. Stayner OF the sO-caled Ives-Stayner syn
dictate. President Garrett and Mr.. Stayner had a
business conference Friday night, and it was stated
that the results were satisfactory. Mr.. Garrett
was visitor on German and South streets Satur-
day, and talked quite freely upon business matters
with his friends. The conclusion reached by these
gentlemen as the result OF their interviews with
the Baltimore and Ohio president was that the ne
EQUATIONS with syndicate OF buyers OF the rail-
road stock are nearing satisfactory conclusion,
and that some minor details only remain to be ar
ranged. The contract for this deal, it Is said will
expire tomorrow, April 20 but it was intimated
that an extension would be granted If necessary.
Mr.. Garrett was explicit in saying that his road
will go to New York, and that surveying corps are
engaged in mapping route between Philadelphia
and New York. These movements are Thought TO
be contingent upon the success or failure OF the
Baltimore road to get to New York upon indie
pendent terms over the Reading and jersey Gen.
trail. Mr.. Garrett assured his friends that his
pany has secured the money needed for the New
York extension, and he will have the details Of
that matter definitely arranged before his depart
ure for Europe. He may leave for Europe on May
H. or defer his departure for several weeks longer

telegram TO the n. Y. Tribune from Ottawa
says: The department OF fisheries Saturday re.
ceiyed Information from St. John, y. b. from the
commander or the Canadian cruiser vigflant. in
which he gives particulars OF an attempt which he
made on April 70 TO seize the American fishing
schooner Hattie Maud of Grand Manan. The Nig-
liant was cruising in shore when Information was
received that fleet OF fishing vessels from GlouceS-
ter Was preparing TO fish within the three-Inile
limit a few miles down. Sail was hastily made
and when, after making about six miles, the Ameri-
can vessels were seen, the Nigilanu tackled and
ran out 10 sea. The klgilanI must have been
seen as soon as she had herself sighted the
offenders, for the fishermen at once put up
sail, the Hattie Maud being the last TO start She
evidently waited for the cruiser which ran IN
within 30 yards OF the Massachusetts boat which
then bore away. The Nigilant fired a blank shot
which had no effect As the Yankee vessel WAS
gaining ground solid shot Tired over the ye,-
sci striking ID yards beyond. This falling the
commander OF the Eigfant trained his guns upon
the flying schooner which was nearly half a lille
away, Scudding along before a strong breeze Sew
eral shots were fired. but without effect and the
commander OF the Nigilant seeing his prey get
ting away from him, ordered all sail up and pre-
pared 10 run the daring fisherman down. just
about this time the 1oretOpmast OF the NigflauJ
was carried away and the chase had TO be abail-
doned. The Hattie Maud continued on her way
toward EaStport. IL Is reported that great
many fishing vessels are about the Bay OF Fundy

GOuld'S Son Frank Arrested
SWEARING TO THE OWNERSHIP OF BLOCK OF
BUILDINGS FOR Bali.


BUILDINGS FOR BAIL.
A Philadelphia Times dispatch from New York
April %, says: Jay GOulds son Frank was with
i've Columbia college students who were arrested
for street turbulence at night after the centennial
celebration OF the institution. They We're hauled
to the Fifty first street police station, where they
demanded release on bail, and Police Justice Sol
Smith was summoned to take it. He demanded
500 for EACH Young Gould at once ran home
and got 8, 600 in cash, which he offered to the
magistrate as bail for his fei0w-students in bond
age. Squire Smith said that he couldn't take
money, and asked Gould II he didn't have some
real estate. 'Oh, yes" replied the lad, naming q
block OF buildings worth several hundreds or thou
sands. The Lad took oath and another student
corroborated his claim to being solid real estate
man. The i've prisoners were accordingly Ne
leased. While the BAH proceedings were pending
a founding babe, whom a policeman had picked
up in Madison avenue, was brought in. It was a
girl neat looking, and her clothing was cleaner
than the average foundling. The students took a
lively interest In her. and she was handed from
one to another. Some one proposed a collection
and hat which was passed around had $50 In it
when its contents were counted. Gould gave $40
OF the sum. The boys insisted on naming the
small heiress Columbiana- With three cheers for
her they left the station.
